Wu Mingcheng looked at Xiang Yuxi in the crowd. As expected of a school beauty, she had completely left her companions behind.
She wore a white short-sleeved top, deliberately cropped at the waist to accentuate her figure.
She wore denim shorts and canvas shoes, exuding a look that was both innocent and sexy.
This truly surprised Wu Mingcheng, because Xiang Yuxi usually dressed rather conservatively, but today's outfit was quite daring.
One of her roommates, upon seeing Xiang Yuxi's outfit, couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
He whispered to Wu Mingcheng,
"It seems this school beauty made an exception and wore this outfit just to see you today. Otherwise, how could we usually see someone like this?"
Several of his roommates chimed in, egging him on.
"That's right, Mingcheng, you have a chance today, you must seize it!"
Wu Mingcheng looked at them and said,
"We're just going out for a meal and some fun. What are you talking about, trying to 'get her into something'?"
Xiang Yuxi and her group quickly crossed the street to Wu Mingcheng and his group.
Wu Mingcheng's roommates were originally in the same class as Xiang Yuxi and her friends.
They all knew each other and stood together exchanging pleasantries, tacitly leaving space for Xiang Yuxi and Wu Mingcheng to speak.
Xiang Yuxi walked up to Wu Mingcheng and greeted him shyly.
"Mingcheng,"
Wu Mingcheng looked at her and praised her.
"Yu Xi, you look so beautiful today!"
Upon hearing Wu Mingcheng's praise, Xiang Yuxi immediately became overjoyed.
"Really? This is the first time I've worn this outfit today,"
Wu Mingcheng encouraged them,
"You have such a great figure, you should wear more clothes like this, I think they would look amazing on you."
Why cover up your figure? I don't see anything wrong with these clothes."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Yuxi made a mental note of it.
"Okay, I'll try it more often in the future."
Wu Mingcheng smiled and said,
"I'm just giving you a suggestion,"
After exchanging a few pleasantries at the school gate, Wu Mingcheng noticed that these guys were only focused on flirting with girls and ignoring everything else.
They made Xiang Yuxi's roommates laugh uncontrollably, and they chatted on and on.
He said helplessly to Xiang Yuxi,
"Look, why don't we set up a table here and have some barbecue? We're not in a hurry to leave."
Upon seeing this, Xiang Yuxi covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
Wu Mingcheng then stepped forward to stop them.
"Hey, I'm saying, why don't we go to a restaurant first and continue talking? If we keep talking, it'll be past dinner time. What are we doing standing here?"
They were having a pleasant chat with Xiang Yuxi and the girls in her dorm.
Upon hearing Wu Mingcheng's words, they all nodded in agreement.
"Okay, let's take a taxi there."
By this time, the men and women had already automatically paired up and split into several cars to head to the Mei family banquet.
Wu Mingcheng, Xiang Yuxi, and two other people were sitting together in a car.
As soon as I got in the car, the driver asked,
"Hey guys, are you going out for a party? Where are you headed?"
Wu Mingcheng immediately said,
"Master, let's go straight to the Mei family banquet. You should know this place, right?"
When it comes to a city, which group of people knows every single place in it?
Those are undoubtedly taxi drivers; they cover almost the entire city.
He was extremely familiar with every nook and cranny of the city, and even with what happened that day.
At this moment, the taxi driver heard about the Mei family banquet, turned around and glanced at Wu Mingcheng, saying,
"Of course I know,"
As the most well-informed people in the city, they naturally knew that the Mei family banquet was not a place that ordinary people could enter.
It seems this is another group of men and women from wealthy and influential families.
Chapter 54 Entering the Mei Family Banquet
Wu Mingcheng continued,
"Alright, Master, just take us to the alley entrance where the Mei family banquet is being held."
Upon hearing this, the taxi driver thought to himself, "This guy must have been to the Mei family banquet before; he even knows this."
He nodded, agreed, and headed towards the Mei family banquet.
Xiang Yuxi, on the other hand, was a very observant girl. From Wu Mingcheng's words, she could tell that this was definitely not his first time attending the Mei family banquet.
And when she recalled what her roommate, a local from Beijing, had said, she knew that Wu Mingcheng's family background must be extraordinary.
But she didn't say anything; she didn't care about any of that.
Because she liked Wu Mingcheng as a person, not his family background or other such additional conditions.
Meanwhile, at the Mei family banquet, the owner, Du Shaobin, had already arrived a step ahead.
The female manager was quite surprised to see her boss, as he only came about once every two weeks.
She asked curiously.
"Boss, what brings you here?"
Du Shaobin then said,
"We have a distinguished guest attending our Mei family banquet tonight, and I will personally receive him."
"So, take the two of you to the Lichun Hall and tidy it up properly again."
This Lichun Hall is usually reserved for the owner to entertain VIPs, so it's clear that this guest is no ordinary person.
This prompted the female manager to act cautiously, and she quickly led two waiters to the Lichun Hall.
After the female manager and her team finished cleaning up, Du Shaobin personally went to check on it again before he felt relieved.
He felt it was about time, so he hurried to the alley entrance to greet Wu Mingcheng.
Wu Mingcheng might not have had a good impression of their Mei family banquet to begin with, so I must show Wu Mingcheng their sincerity.
Soon, Wu Mingcheng and his group arrived at the entrance of the alley outside the Mei family banquet.
Because cars couldn't drive into the alley, they had to get out at the alley entrance.
When the group arrived at the alley entrance, they were surprised to see several rickshaw pullers dressed in short, Republican-era clothing standing there.
These things are practically nonexistent in modern society, except, of course, in museums.
So, they were all quite intrigued when they saw it.
At this moment, Du Shaobin, who was waiting for Wu Mingcheng and his group at the entrance of the alley,
Upon seeing Wu Mingcheng, he felt that the figure was particularly familiar.
At this moment, he thought about it carefully and realized that this was the friend who had come with Fan Weiming earlier.
Then he remembered Fan Weimin's instructions: Wu Mingcheng didn't want to reveal his identity.
So he quickly went up to greet them.
"Mr. Wu, I am Du Shaobin, the owner of Mei Family Banquet. Welcome everyone. I've been waiting here especially for your presence."
Wu Mingcheng didn't want to slap a smiling face, so he shook hands with Du Shaobin and responded with a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Du,"
Seeing that Wu Mingcheng was smiling and didn't seem to be blaming them, Du Shaobin felt much relieved.
The others watching Du Shaobin's respectful attitude towards Wu Mingcheng...
They couldn't help but wonder about the identity of Wu Mingcheng's friend.
Only Xiang Yuxi could guess that this Boss Du held Wu Mingcheng in high esteem, which suggests that Wu Mingcheng's family background was not simple.
At this moment, Du Shaobin spoke up.
"Mr. Wu, everyone, you can now get into the rickshaws, which will take you to the entrance of our Mei Family Banquet Hall."
